  • how wold is this video?!

  • Problem: It eliminates too many slave jobs.i.e: oil exploitation to fuel oil burning plants also Coal mining. People don't like it when only a few people need to work. Slavery would disappear.

  • What is it with the commentary guy he keep stopping mid way scentance briefly. anyone else notice this...heres an example 'rapidly to develope the...(Stopping)...tecnology the US initiated' 3:33

  • If you want FREE programs then go to my channel (click on my name) when you get there click on any video you like, copy and paste the link given in the description, and finish a SHORT survey to begin your download!.

  • USA gets its eletricity from coal.

  • Obama... how much money do you have for this? A billion or two thrown this way would not hurt our wall street friends. But be prepared for quakes, toxic gas and maybe a pet volcano.. lol.

    Regulation is not a dirty word. Use it.

  • Soylentgreenb,

    I appreciate that developing new energy requires energy. Cost is a big issue. But we must spend money and energy that we have now to ensure that we have something else to step across to when the limited sources of energy we currently use run out. The endurance potential of this particular energy source is attractive.

    I also feel that the oil companies investing in this don't want to make themselves redundant too soon. I hope they are not trying to play 'God' with our future.

  • the reason it has not been developed is because they are trying to figure out how to make money on it. It is to cheap a source, lol.

  • "the reason it has not been developed is because they are trying to figure out how to make money on it. It is to cheap a source, lol."

    No, it has been technologically difficult and expensive to extract outside of a few locations with very good resource(e.g. Iceland).

    Recent advances in oil drilling and oil well stimulation technology has made it more practical.

  • yep too cheap we would all be gluttons not have to work and multiply faster...

  • Heat mining is the obvious answer to the world's energy problems. It is immense and easily obtainable, and also virtually constantly renewable.

    But I'm curious to know why this initiative is called an American initiative. Other countries, alas not having the resources of the American economy, have been considering this for a long time.

    What is stopping things?

  • "Other countries ... have been considering this for a long time."

    They've been mapping the resource and building test plants with limited success. Works great in Iceland because they've got huge heat reservoirs right at the surface.

    "What is stopping things?"

    Cost. Oil companies are the chief supporters of HDR(they need something to do when the oil is gone) and they're in the business of drilling very deep holes and working with well stimulation technology and imaging.

  • thank you for this video, it really means a lot to me on a very deep level.

    at the mark of 2:58-3:00 the man in the brown jacket, 2nd from the right, is my grandfather. It puts a smile on my face, and a tear in my eye since he is no longer with us.

    I've dedicated my first semester of my senior year in high school to doing a project over the Hot Dry Rock program. And I appreciate this video more than most.

    Thank you.

  • it can result in earth quick ! check out the example of a HDR project in Swiss
